get a private plate of an older age
I'll wait and see what happens, I know it's going to be Sport powered with a Sport interior :)
So, i'd do a sport rep on a L plate shell.Quote:

Lets waste a boad of band width on a joker thread aye?

if you cared so much for it why sell it in the first place ?? :roll:
from the pics the Sport shell looked ready for the crusher anyway.
To me a Sport is,
Polar white paint, Decals, flashes on front bumper, 40's, yellow/brown check interior.
Why spend all the time, effort and money on repairing a shell thats too far gone just to say its a Sport when the look can be earsier and cheaper ??
WAAAYYY too many people bitchin bout Sport's laterly.
IMO a different shell was the best option.
Still reckon that the decals should go on tho. :thumb:
Good luck with the rest of the project Vaughan.
Edd
completely agree with Edd!
this should be good mate i will definatly keep an eye on this one! good luck mate :thumb:
Aye as you said Edd, it was my Sport to do what I wanted with it - If the shell was better nick I'd have kept it but the option I chose was the best one for me to get full use out the 'Sport'
I'll work away at this one and see what I end up with - Definately going Sport based...Still no 100% on the decals
I will be following this project, nice to see more 8v small blocks!
ive got a mk1 SR in glacier white, (agreed polar white is better!) and a 1400 on 40s (WIP), i have considered trying to get my hands on a set of sport decals but dont think i would, SR is limited edition enough for me, id rather wait to get a real one. Does anyone know if the sport airbox would be alright on a 1400? and can you still get the filters for them?
ive had so many people say 'are you dropping a red top in it mate?' and they always seem shocked when i say nah, just a 1400 8v... lightness of the small block all the way!Quote:
